Three young filmmakers have a film project that revisits the history of the Resistance from a female perspective, looking beyond historical reconstruction to see what remains of it today. They will be filming in Bussoleno, in the Susa Valley, and while they work, they will in turn be filmed by another group of filmmakers, including Bruno Bigoni: this will not be the background to their film, but rather a film that will itself recount that creative process.

A love letter from a young mother to her daughter, the film tells the story of Waad al-Kateab’s life through five years of the uprising in Aleppo, Syria as she falls in love, gets married and gives birth to Sama, all while cataclysmic conflict rises around her. Her camera captures incredible stories of loss, laughter and survival as Waad wrestles with an impossible choice– whether or not to flee the city to protect her daughter’s life, when leaving means abandoning the struggle for freedom for which she has already sacrificed so much.

The life of internationally renowned artist and activist Nan Goldin is told through her slideshows, intimate interviews, ground-breaking photography, and rare footage of her personal fight to hold the Sackler family accountable for the overdose crisis.
